Helllo! I want to turn this OGG file into an 8-bit sound by using sound effects, I've spoken to a friend about it and they said its possible on FL-Studio using sound effects on the OGG. I've never really used FL Studio only for changing midi instruments so I'm kind of a bit lost here.

Can you send the OGG file in question so we can get a better grade of what it would take to do what you want?

silver moss Jan 13, 2023, 6:10 PM

There's a few different ways to achieve an "8-bit sound", one way is through bitcrushing. Load your OGG into FL, route it through a mixer insert, then add the Effector plugin. This lo-fi effect is a bitcrusher.

#

Another similar effect would be to use Fruity WaveShaper and to use the Bitmunched preset

Mixer insert can you explain what you mean by that?

meager elk Jan 13, 2023, 6:25 PM

#

Inserts are how you add effects to sound

meager elk Jan 13, 2023, 6:29 PM

#

meager elk

see how next to my "buildup loop" i have the box set to 4

#

that means that sound is routed to insert 4

silver moss Jan 13, 2023, 6:30 PM

#

AHH

meager elk Jan 13, 2023, 6:30 PM

#

you can scroll on that box to change the number, or drag vertically

silver moss Jan 13, 2023, 6:30 PM

#

meager elk Jan 13, 2023, 6:31 PM

#

silver moss Jan 13, 2023, 6:31 PM

#

meager elk Jan 13, 2023, 6:31 PM

#

wh

silver moss Jan 13, 2023, 6:31 PM

#

Cause 2 of them are making sound but im only hearing the first one

#

Am I not suppose to hear the 2nd one?

#

oh nvm

#

i hear it now

meager elk Jan 13, 2023, 6:32 PM

#

yeah, if you're wondering about that, all the inserts 1-100 or whatever route to M

proper tide Jan 13, 2023, 6:33 PM

#

silver moss Cause 2 of them are making sound but im only hearing the first one

that "1st one" is the Master track. All other tracks route to that track and that track routes to your audio output

silver moss Jan 13, 2023, 6:33 PM

#

Ok I just need to find the right place now.

#

it sounds a bit gritty

meager elk Jan 13, 2023, 6:33 PM

#

bit out of sight, but that's what this wire is for

silver moss Jan 13, 2023, 6:35 PM

#

Okay

#

I think I got it.

#

Do I just export with the sfx?

meager elk Jan 13, 2023, 6:45 PM

#

Yep, exporting should apply the effects by default but make sure they are enabled

silver moss Jan 13, 2023, 6:47 PM

#

It does

#

Thank you for your help @meager elk @proper tide !

silver moss Jan 14, 2023, 1:03 AM
